Treatment of Church Members
1 Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father, younger men as brothers,
2 older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with all purity.
Honor True Widows
3 Honor widows who are really widows.
4 But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show piety at home and ato repay their parents; for this is1 good and acceptable before God.
5 Now she who is really a widow, and left alone, trusts in God and continues in supplications and prayers anight and day.
6 But she who lives in1 pleasure is dead while she lives.
